A humorous hand-coloured mezzotint after John Collet (1725-1780) titled "The Proverb Reversed, or A Bird in the Bush is Worth Two in the Hand." The print wittily inverts the familiar proverb 'a bird in the hand is worth two in the bush', depicting a hunter who encounters a beautiful woman lying in the grass. Well presented in a vintage wooden frame. On paper.
